Attachment 3 - Further advice
General advice
1. Access location approval: Under section 62 of the Transport Infrastructure Act 1994, approval must be obtained from the Department of Transport and Main Roads to obtain vehicle access for the proposed development onto a state-controlled road. Please contact the Department of Transport and Main Roads on 07-49311559 to make an application for a vehicle access location approval. This approval must be obtained prior to commencing any works on the state-controlled road reserve. The approval process will require the approval of engineering designs of the proposed works, certified by a Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland (RPEQ). The road works approval process takes time – please contact Transport and Main Roads as soon as possible to ensure that gaining approval does not delay construction.
2. Road works approval: Under section 33 of the Transport Infrastructure Act 1994, written approval is required from the Department of Transport and Main Roads to carry out road works on a state-controlled road. Please contact the Department of Transport and Main Roads on 07-49311559 to make an application for road works approval. This approval must be obtained prior to commencing any works on the state-controlled road reserve. The approval process will require the approval of engineering designs of the proposed works, certified by a Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland (RPEQ). The road works approval process takes time – please contact Transport and Main Roads as soon as possible to ensure that gaining approval does not delay construction.
3. An alternative “Stopping Place” for southbound traffic as a result of the development impacting on the existing stopping place, by way of widening the SCR to facilitate right turn access into the site, is required and will be assessed as part of the required Works in State-controlled Road Reserves (WSCRR) application.

1 INTRODUCTION
This Site Based Stormwater Management Plan (SBSMP) has been prepared by TFA Project Group on behalf of Puma Energy Australia for the development of a new service station, consisting of paypoint building, two canopies over fuel dispensing areas, fast food building and associated driveways, walkways, vehicle parking and landscape areas. The purpose of this document is to verify that stormwater quality and quantity have been considered as part of this development and that it is possible to treat the stormwater to achieve the statutory outcomes outlined in the Gladstone Regional Council Stormwater Management Guideline Rev.02. The SBSMP is part of the Development Approval process and addresses both the construction and operational phases of the development. Table 1 below shows additional details of the proposed development. The proposed site layout plan is shown in Appendix A. Table 1: Details of proposed development
Developer Puma Energy Australia
Address 53793 Bruce Highway, Mount Larcom QLD 4695
Property Description Lot 1 on RP609780
Area of Development 3979 m²
Stormwater Risk Classification High Risk (due to the storage and transfer on site of petroleum products that have the potential to cause harm to the environment, if released).
Existing Land Use Fuel service station/ Caravan Park
2 SITE DESCRIPTION The development site is bounded by the Bruce Highway to the North, Lot 1 on RP612257 to the East, and Lot 1 on RP613378 to the West and South. The site currently has a Service station building, caravan park area with gravel driveways and landscaped areas. A landscape plan will be prepared for the final form of the site that will incorporate stormwater treatment measures, such as a Bioretention system.
A geotechnical investigation will be completed to determine soil type and any specific treatment or management requirements to mitigate erosion or pollution of the environment. This will be developed at the Operational Works stage of the development. A location of the site is shown on Figure 1.

3 SITE TOPOGRAPHY AND EXISTING DRAINAGE
For a drawing of the existing site survey refer to Appendix B. The survey plan shows the existing condition of the site. It was prepared by CSG Capricorn Survey Gladstone and is dated 20th May 2015. The development site has existing surface levels approximately between RL 37.92m and RL 40.43m AHD and is divided into two catchments of varying slope. The main catchment generally falls from the South-East to the North-west, the other catchment generally falls from the South of the site to the North. There are two existing legal points of discharge, a swale that runs along the Bruce Highway and discharges into a 1000x1000 box culvert located near the North-west corner of the site, and the second is a 1150x 800 box culvert located near the North-east corner of the site.

15096 – 53793 Bruce Highway QLD 4695 Page 3
4 PROPOSED DRAINAGE LAYOUT
The post development stormwater drainage design generally maintains the overall catchment boundaries and creates an isolated catchment to capture, convey and treat all the runoff generated within the proposed development area. The design separates the high risk (hydrocarbon generating e.g. under the canopies) areas from the low risk areas (the rest of the site). Stormwater runoff from the low risk areas will be captured and conveyed via gully pits, trench drains and underground pipes located across the development site. Stormwater runoff from the high-risk areas will be treated by a Spel® Puraceptor to remove any hydrocarbons. All the stormwater runoff generated from high risk and low risk areas on the site will be treated using a combination of Spel® Stormsacks
and a bioretention system located on the site to achieve the required statutory pollutant load reductions targets. Flow from the existing non-developed catchments areas will be diverted away by swales along the proposed driveway to the legal points of discharge. Refer to Appendix D for a concept plan of the stormwater drainage and site grading. The two legal points of discharge are a swale that runs along the Bruce Highway and discharges into a 1000x1000 box culvert located near the North-west corner of the site, and the second is a 1150x 800 box culvert located near the North-east corner of the site. The proposed site drainage discharges into the legal point on the Bruce Highway near the North-west corner of the site. 5 WATER QUANTITY ASSESSMENT As discussed and agreed with Gladstone City Council, no onsite stormwater detention storage is required for the development since the only disturbed area is the proposed fuel & food activities area. The post development flows are modelled as per Gladstone Regional Council Stormwater Management Guideline Rev.02 and treated accordingly. The areas outside the proposed development will not be disturbed and their runoff flow is going to be diverted away from the proposed development by a natural swale to discharge into the existing culverts on the Bruce Highway as per the Concept Plan shown in Appendix D. 6 WATER QUALITY ASSESSMENT
6.1 Construction Phase Impacts on receiving waters and surrounding areas will be minimised during the construction phase with measures as outlined in this SBSMP and an Erosion and Sediment Control Plan to be developed at the Operational Works stage. 6.1.1 Pollutants Typical pollutants generated during the construction phase of the development are shown below in Table 2.

6.3 Proposed Stormwater Treatment 6.3.1 Stormwater Treatment Philosophy Waterways and other aquatic environments are valued by the community for their social, cultural, economic and environmental benefits. Urban runoff, contaminated with nutrients, sediment and other pollutants adversely impacts theses valued resources. Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) is a holistic approach to the planning and design of urban landscapes that minimises theses negative impacts. This approach is used on this project to select the treatment options that considers the civil, landscape and ecological aspects of the site. The treatment train shown in Figure 2 uses the Best Management guidelines to treat stormwater runoff from the site.
6.3.2 Source Controls Rubbish bins can be an effective source control for litter and are appropriate for most developments. Bins will be placed in appropriate areas (such as buildings and staff amenity) to encourage thoughtful waste disposal.
6.3.3 Gross Pollutant Traps A GPT is a treatment device designed to capture coarse sediment, trash and vegetation matter in stormwater runoff. GPTs are often used as the first treatment element in a treatment train. Spel® Stormsacks or a similar approved product will be used within this development; the Stormsacks will be installed in gully pits, refer to Appendix E for typical details.

6.3.4 Bioretention Systems Bioretention systems effectively combine a grass or vegetated swale with an infiltration trench; they are effective in removing sediment and nutrients. Appropriately located bioretention systems will be employed on site to treat stormwater runoff. Refer to Appendix E for typical details of a bioretention system. The bioretention systems are designed to treat first flush flows from the site up to Q1 (63% AEP) flows, higher stormwater flows will bypass treatment. The minor design flow up to Q10 (10% AEP) will discharge to the nearby waterway via gully pits and the major design flows will discharge via an appropriately sized overflow weir or pit and pipe arrangement.
6.4 Fuel Related Stormwater Treatment Key features of the fuel related stormwater treatment process are detailed below.
6.4.1 Fuel Dispensing Areas The fuel dispensing area will be concrete surfaced and covered by canopies. The fuel dispensing area will be bunded to prevent stormwater runoff from outside the canopies flowing into the dispensing areas and to ensure that any spills are contained in the dispensing areas. The perimeter of the each canopy will overhang the dispensing containment area by 10 degrees to reduce the amount of windblown rainfall onto the dispensing area. Any flows/spills in the containment area will drain to gully pits which will discharge to an appropriately sized Spel® Puraceptor. Bulk fuel transfers from a road tanker to underground tanks will take place in an open concrete bunded area; any runoff from the unloading area will be directed to a Spel® Puraceptor. A spill containment box at fill points will capture any minor fuel spills that may occur during unloading; the spilt fuel will then drain from the containment box into the fuel storage tanks. 6.4.1.1 Spel® Puraceptor The Puraceptor will have a minimum containment volume of 10,000litres, which allows for containment for spill from an 8,000 litre tanker compartment plus allowances for wind-blown rain. The Puraceptor will remove hydrocarbons, gross pollutants and total suspended solids. Refer to Appendix E for details of the Spel® Puraceptor. 6.4.2 Underground Fuel Storage Tanks Underground fuel storage tanks, piping and fuel dispensers will be installed in accordance with the Australian Institute of Petroleum (AIP) standards.
6.4.3 Areas outside Canopies All driveways and car parking areas within the development project will be concrete surfaced and will drain via gully inlet pits, which will have Spel® Stormsacks inserts to capture gross pollutants. The stormwater will then flow to bioretention system for removal of pollutants such as sediment, free oils, grease, and nutrients, before discharging to the legal point of discharge on Bruce Highway at North-western boundary. Refer to Appendix E for typical details of the Stormsacks and bioretention systems.

6.5 MUSIC Modelling
6.5.1 Introduction The Model for Urban Stormwater Improvement Conceptualisation (MUSIC - Version 6.1.0) was used to assess the performance of the proposed stormwater treatment measures and determine the number of Spel®
Stormsacks, size and configuration of bioretention systems required to achieve statutory pollutant reduction targets for the operational phase of the project. The following guidelines were used to aid in the water quality modelling:
• Gladstone Regional Council Stormwater Management Guideline ( February 2014 Rev.02) • MUSIC Modelling Guidelines Version 1.0 - 2010, waterbydesign • Queensland Urban Drainage Manual (QUDM), Second Edition 2007 • Healthy Waterways WSUD Technical Design Guidelines for SEQ: Version 1 – June 2006 • Queensland State Planning Policy July 2014 • Bioretention Technical Guidelines Version 1.1 – October 2014, waterbydesign • Maintaining Vegetated Stormwater Assets Version 1 – February 2012, waterbydesign
6.5.2 Music Model Setup The input parameters for source node, soil behaviour and pollutant generation characteristics are based on Table 3.7 and 3.8 of MUSIC Modelling Guidelines Version 1.0 - 2010, WaterByDesign (2010). The following inputs were used:
• Gladstone Regional Council (GRC) Music Template • Split catchment land use for commercial developments • No drainage routing between nodes.
The details of the catchment/source nodes used in the MUSIC model are shown in Table 7 below.
Table 7: MUSIC catchment parameters
Catchments Total Area (Ha)
Split Catchment Area (Ha)
Land Use % Impervious
A1, A2 and A3
0.3979 0.0229 Building Roof 100
0.0304 Canopy Floor (Light Vehicles) 100

6.5.3 Music Modelling Results The proposed stormwater treatment measures were modelled in MUSIC using the Gladstone Regional Council Music Template and the proposed development data as per instructed in the Gladstone Regional Council Stormwater Management Guideline February 2014 Rev.02. The proposed treatment train consists of Spel® Stormsacks and Bioretention systems connected in series. The generic nodes in MUSIC have been modified by Spel® based on 2nd & 3rd Party Field testing data for their products; these test results and papers are available upon request. Table 9 below show details of proprietary products modelled in MUSIC.

7 SITE MAINTENANCE AND MANAGEMENT PROCEDURES
The service station operator will have a Petrol Handling Manual that will set out all requirements for the safe handling of combustible and flammable materials. This manual will dictate weekly, monthly and annual checking procedures with checklists, which will be completed, and the records stored. The manual will also set out dry cleaning methods to be employed within the fuel dispensing area in lieu of washing down to reduce possible contaminated runoff. Emergency procedures will be also clearly set out, detailing actions to be taken by site personnel in the case of varying possible emergencies such as spills, fire or risk of fire, vehicle accidents, etc. In addition a regular cleaning, maintenance program/contract is to be established for emptying of rubbish bins located around the site, removal of general litter from the site, inspection of stormwater gully pits and removal of any sediment or captured litter from the Spel® Stormsacks and bioretention systems. The Spel® Stormsacks will be inspected and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Refer to Appendix F for maintenance plans for the bioretention systems and Spel® Stormsacks. The maintenance plan will address the following:
• Inspection frequency; • Maintenance frequency; • Data collection/storage requirements; • Detailed cleanout procedures.
The plan will include inspection procedures covering aspects such as equipment needs, maintenance techniques, occupational health and safety, public safety, environmental management considerations, disposal requirements of pollutants collected and access issues.
7.1 Maintenance Plans for Stormwater treatment devices All stormwater quality improvement systems require regular maintenance in order to function adequately. Table 12 details the basic maintenance requirements for each type of stormwater quality improvements systems. A detailed maintenance schedule will be developed as part of the detailed design of the site.

8 LIFECYCLE COSTS A lifecycle cost analysis is not part of the scope of this report. All the recommended water quality treatment infrastructure lies within the development site and it shall be maintained and serviced by the owners of the development at no cost to Council.
9 CONCLUSION
A Site Based Stormwater Management Plan has been prepared with respect to the proposed service station and truck stop. The location of the site is shown on Figure 1 and the proposed development site layout is shown in Appendix A.
• Stormwater Quantity The water quantity assessment shows that no flow attenuation measures are required to reduce peak flow rates discharged from the site.
• Stormwater Quality- Construction Phase An Erosion and Sediment Control Plan aimed at minimising unacceptable impacts during the construction phase will be developed at the Operational Works stage, in accordance with Gladstone Regional Council Guidelines and Standards.
• Stormwater Quality- Operational Phase A conceptual MUSIC model for the site indicated that the proposed treatment measures will achieve the statutory water quality objectives for the site. The location of the proposed treatment measures is shown in Appendix D.
This Site Based Stormwater Management Plan has demonstrated that adequate stormwater quantity and quality management principles and techniques will be employed during the construction and operational phases of this

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE
PuraceptorsTM should be inspected at three - six - or twelve monthly intervals depending on site conditions, to determine the depth of retained pollutants and silt in both chambers and the correct operating of the ACD (automatic closure device). When the depth of the oil/fuel retained has reached the predetermined design level, (approx. 50mm) or after a spill it should be cleaned out.
CONTAINMENT CHAMBER: Where silt, sediments, sludge, gross pollutants settle out and light liquids are retained. The auto closure device operates in its retaining tube next to the oil alert sensor probe.
COALESCER CHAMBER: Where light liquids separation is enhanced prior to discharge and where the coalescer unit is incorporated, the coalescer should be removed and cleaned in accordance with the requirements set out in the coalescer data sheet.

A Coalescer unitUse the lifting handle or the chain and lift the coalescer unit out of the tank and place it near the PuraceptorTM. In a retained area so pollutants do not escape.
B Cleaning foam insertRemove foam insert and wash with normal water pressure ensuring the dirty water runs into the PuraceptorTM.
C Sucking out oil/fuel and siltSuck off the retained oil from both chambers of the PuraceptorTM and then the silt deposited on the bottom, leaving suffi cient water to ensure the (auto closure device) ACD remains fl oating.
D Sucking out complete contents (if necessary)If the quantity of pollutants exceeds recommended level, the complete contents of the PuraceptorTM may need to be removed. After sucking out completely, remove the ACD. Using a pole with a hook, lift out the ACD using the lifting eye on the fl oat.
E Re-insert coalescer unit and ACDRe-insert the foam insert into the stainless steel coalescer unit and re-insert the coalescer unit into the PuraceptorTM

The SPEL PuraceptorTM Class 1 separator and the SPEL StormceptorTM Class 1 by-pass separators incorporate coalescer units. The coalescer units provide a coalescence process for the separation of small globules of light liquid pollutants before fi nal discharge to the surface water drain.
Coalescers are found in the second chamber of the SPEL PuraceptorTM and the second chamber of the SPEL StormceptorTM Class 1
Prior to installation1. Remove any strapping / ropes which have been used to hold the coalescer units from shifting in transit.
2 The access shaft(s) above the coalescer units should be covered to prevent ingress of concrete, dust, debris etc., which could clog the foam inserts.
3. On completion of installation, check that the coalescer unit is inserted securely into the base socket.
On heavily polluted sites silt and contaminants may build up in the coalescer unit foam insertsand add signifi cantly to it’s weight. Use lifting chain sets that are on hooks at ground levelfor safe lifting with a tripod or hoist.
InstallationDuring installation, it is important that the foam inserts are not clogged with dust, debris ordrops of wet concrete. To safeguard against this, we recommend covering the access shaftwith a sheet of polythene, if not already covered.
CommissioningOn completion of installation, check the foam insert is fi tted inside the stainless steel coalescerunit and the coalescer unit is inserted securely into the base socket.
Maintenance1. Lift handle and coalescer unit out of the tank and place in a retained area so pollutants do not escape.
2. Remove foam insert and wash with normal water pressure ensuring the dirty water runs into the PuraceptorTM / StormceptorTM.
3. Make sure the hole in the centre of the coalescer foam is facing towards the manhole when installed in the tank.
4. Re-insert the foam insert into the stainless steel coalescer unit and re-insert the coalescer into the PuraceptorTM / StormceptorTM. After the tank has been cleaned.
SPEL COALESCER UNITS GUIDE RAIL SYSTEM/LIFTING,LOCATING AND LOCKING SYSTEMSPEL coalescer unit guide rail systemThis facilitates easy insertion and removal of coalescer units. The system is robust, manufacturedthroughout in stainless steel and is action positive, leaving no doubt the coalescerunit is located properly.
Brackets fi xed to the top and bottom of the coalescer unit simply engage the stainless steelguide rail fi xed to the top of the stub access shaft. The coalescer is then lowered in the normal way,being guided at the correct angle into the conical base unit which fi nally locates the coalescer unitinto it’s fi nal position.
Extension guide rails can be incorporated into the SPEL extension shafts to suit(preferably when ordered with the separator).
However, when the separator is full of water, debris or sludge accumulated over a periodcould prevent the coalescer unit from re-seating correctly after servicing.
The coalescer unit lifting / locating / locking system ensures the coalescer unit is seatedcorrectly and can be locked into position to prevent tampering.
The stainless steel lifting handle can be extended to suit deep tank inverts and provide easyaccess for lifting manually or with a tripod and hoist utilising the lifting hook.

• SPEL ACDThe Automatic Closure Device (ACD) is found in the fi rst chamber of a PuraceptorTM. The purpose of the ACD is to close the separator off automatically when the maximum storage capacity of light liquid is attained.
The ACD is to ensure that in the event of a major spillage, pollutants do not pass into the drainage system; it should not be regarded as a substitute for an automatic alarm / monitoring system.
Prior to installationPrior to installation the ACD retaining tube should be covered to prevent ingress of concrete etc., which could fall onto the ACD andupset it’s calibration.
Operation and MaintenanceIf the tank should fi ll with light liquid, the ACD which is calibrated for a specifi c gravity of 0.85, will automatically sink andclose off the SPEL PuraceptorTM.
Normally routine maintenance would include removing light liquid intercepted within the PuraceptorTM. If a SPEL automatic alarm / monitoring system is incorporated, it will automatically indicate when the PuraceptorTM should be emptied. Only in an emergency will the PuraceptorTM fi ll to it’s maximum and operate the ACD.
In such an event the PuraceptorTM should be completely sucked out and the ACD lifted out. Check that the ACD is in good working condition – ie. Lifting hook secure and sealed; fl oat not leaking; knuckle joint free and clean; sealing ring intact and complete. Clean with warm soapy water before re-inserting.
To re-insert the ACD, partially fi ll the PuraceptorTM with clean water (if necessary) to ensure the ACD when re-inserted remains fl oating.Re-insert the ACD.
Finally check the ACD is fl oating and the retaining cap has been replaced tosafeguard against it’s removal by unauthorised persons, unless depth of tankprecludes doing so from ground level.
SPEL PuraceptorTM Class 1 separators – Two Chamber ModelsCommissioningAfter the tank has been installed, leave the water in.
1. Remove the ACD from the packing box, taking care not to cause damage.
2. Remove the retaining cap from the top of the retaining tube in the separator.
3. Insert the ACD into the retaining tube using the lifting eye provided, ensuring it fl oats correctly with the fl oat (top section approx. 30mm) just visible above the water level.
4. Replace the retaining cap. This is to safeguard against the removal of the fl oat by unauthorised persons or rising above the tube under abnormal conditions.
Note: If the tank’s invert depth exceeds 1metre, it is advisableto remove the retaining cap prior to installation and onlyreplace after inserting the ACD, if it is possible to do sofrom ground level.

The SPEL automatic alarm/monitoring system provides a audible warning alarm when the level of the oil in the SPEL separator reaches approximately 10% of the storage volume under static liquid level conditions. This is a early warning system that is used for spillsor lack of maintenance.The system comprises of a probe mounted in the main separation chamber which senses when the designed volume of light liquids has accumulated and sends a signal to the electronic control unit activating a red ‘empty now’ warning light and an audible alarm,
OperationThe probe is freely suspended in the probe protection tube in the separator at the correct level. When the oil-layer or depth of hydrocarbons reaches the predetermined level, the top of the probe will be immersed in the oil, breaking the circuit and activating the alarm. It is a ‘fail-safe’ system providingcomplete assurance that it is operative. If a fault occurs it will be signalled immediately.
InstallationControl unit (general positioning)The control unit has been designed to be located indoors and outdoors, within a nonhazardous area. It should be wall mountedand positioned such that the LED display and push switches on the front panel can be readily seen and accessed. The unit can be secured to the wall by using the four mounting holes provided. Included within the control is an intrinsically safe circuit (approved according to ATEX Directive 94/9/EC), towhich the probe unit is connected.
Insert probe onsiteThe probe protection tube is factory fi tted and the probe matched to ensure the alarm is activated when the light liquids reach approximately 10% of the storage volume the SPEL separator is designed for.
All that is required on site is to undertake the electrical installation in accordance with the instructions provided and lower the probe with the pre-fi xed location cap into the probe protection tube. When the cap locates onto the top of the probe protection tube, the probe is suspended at the correct level.
MaintenanceWhen the separator is maintained, lift the probe out of the probe
protection tube, check it operates the alarm (see under Tests Ref. 10.2) and at the same time wipe oil and contaminants from the probe to
prevent a fake alarm after re-inserting.

Control unit (electrical connections)
1. Mains voltage connection;The control unit should be connected to a suitable 220/240V AC supply and fused at 3 amps.
Note: This appliance must be earthed.
2. Control unit/probe junction box connectionWiring from the control unit to the probe junction box in the separator chamber requires a 3-core screened. 0.75mm core section cable.
Maximum cable length: 300 metres.
3. Probe connectionA 5 metre 3-core probe cable is normally fi tted to the junction box and the probe.
After all connections have been made, the cables must be secured by tightening each entry gland.
ProbeThe probe is installed freely suspended in the SPEL separator within the probe protection tube. The 3-core cable is connected into the junction box mounted in the access shaft above the probe protection tube. Extra cable is provided to enable raising the junction box where extension shafts are incorporated.
Important note: In all cases good, standard electrical practice should be followed and the installation must conform to the Australian Wiring Rules – AS 3000 – 2007. In essence, the installation must be such that the intrinsic safety isno compromised by:
• Exposure to risk of mechanical damage
• Unauthorised modifi cation of interference
• Exposure to moisture, dust and foreign bodies
• Excessive heat
• Invasion of intrinsically safe circuit by other electrical equipment or circuitry
Certifi cate of conformityThe alarm device has been approved to be used in explosion-hazardous areas. The control unit and probe are approved according to ATEX Directive 94/9/EC. These approvals mean that the probes can be installed in Zone 0, which is continuously explosion-hazardous.
The SPEL oilset control unit must be located in the safe area, but it can be connected to the probe without any barrier.
Tests (10.2)The function can be tested by lifting the probe within the probe protection tube. In approximately 5 seconds, the alarm is given by a red light and audible signal. Both relays release. Push the RESET button - the buzzer goes off and relay pulls in.
When the probe is placed in water again, relay pulls in and the red light goes off.
Cable break and short circuit testAlso the function can be tested in case of cable fault or short circuit. First cause short circuit in probe cable terminals 1 and 2. Then the yellow light of short circuit is lit. Both the relays pick up and the buzzer goes on. Remove the short circuit and reset the buzzer.
Simulated Function TestThe function of probe, cable and electronics can be tested. Push the TEST button for 2 to 5 seconds. Both relays pick up, and the red light is lit. When the TEST button is released, the red light goes off and relay returns to its normal position. The buzzer and relay must be reset.
InstallationImportant note: It is important that installation is carried out by a competent technician familiar with this type of equipment or contact our Special Products Division for installation, commissioning and maintenance service.

OilSET-1000 Oil Separator Alarm Device D15383Be Installation and Operating Instructions
1 GENERAL
OilSET-1000 is an alarm device for monitoring the thickness of the oil layer accumulating in an oil separator. Depending on the order, the delivery consists of OilSET-1000 control unit, SET/DM3D probe and a cable joint.
Figure 1. Oil separator alarm system
SET/DM3D probe is installed into the light liquid storage chamber and gives an alarm when the chamber is filled to a pre-determined degree. The probe is normally immersed in water.
The function is based on the measurement of the electrical conductivity of the surrounding liquid – water conducts electricity much better than oil.
Oil separator is regarded as potentially explosive (Ex) area. SET/DM3D probe can be installed in a zone 0, 1 or 2 potentially explosive area but the control unit must be mounted in a safe area.
The LED indicators, push buttons and interfaces of the OilSET-1000 control unit are described in figure 2.

OilSET-1000 Oil Separator Alarm Device D15383Be Installation and Operating Instructions
2.2 SET/DM3D probe SET/DM3D probe should be installed as described in figure 3.
The probe gives an alarm earliest when the upper electrode is in oil and latest when the probe is totally immersed in a non-conductive liquid - in other words, it is totally away from the water.
Please check the correct installation depth also from the instructions of the oil separator.
2.3 Cable joint
Fig. 4 Cable joint SK-3-2500
Connections of the probe cable inside the cable joint are explained in figure 3. Cable shields and possible excess wires need to be connected to the same point in galvanic contact.
Please make sure, that the probe and cable between OilSET-1000 control unit and the probe do not exceed the maximum allowed electrical parameters – see chapter 7 Technical data.
IP rating of the cable joint is IP67. Make sure, that the cable joint is closed properly.
If the probe cable must be extended and there is a need for equipotential grounding, it should be done with the junction box LJB2. The cabling between the OilSET-1000 control unit and the junction box should be done with a shielded twisted pair instrument cable.

chapter 3.1 for more detailed description). 3. Immerse the probe back into water. The alarm should go off after a
delay of 5 sec. Clean up the probe if necessary before placing it back into the oil separator.
A more detailed description of the operation is provided in chapter 3.1. If the operation is not as described here, check the factory settings (chapter 3.2.) or contact a representative of the manufacturer.
3.1 Operation The operation of a factory-initialized OilSET-1000 is described in this chapter.
Normal mode – no alarms SET/DM3D probe is totally immersed in water. Mains LED indicator is on. Other LED indicators are off. Relays 1 and 2 are energized.
Oil alarm SET/DM3D probe is immersed in oil. (The probe gives an alarm earliest when the upper electrode is in oil and latest when the probe is totally immersed in a non-conductive liquid, in other words it is totally away from the water.)
Mains LED indicator is on. Oil Alarm LED indicator is on. Buzzer on after 5 sec delay. Relays de-energize after 5 sec delay. (Note. The same alarm takes place when SET/DM3D probe is in the air.)
After removal of an alarm, the Oil Alarm LED indicator and buzzer will be off, and relays will be energized after a fixed delay of 5 sec.
Fault alarm Probe cable break, short circuit or a broken probe, i.e. too low or too high probe signal current.
Mains LED indicator is on. Probe circuit Fault LED indicator is on after 5 sec delay. Buzzer is on after 5 sec delay. The relays de-energize after 5 sec delay.
Reset of an alarm When pressing the Reset push button. Buzzer will go off. Relay 1 energizes. Relay 2 will stay de-energized until the actual alarm or fault is off.
TEST FUNCTION

OilSET-1000 Oil Separator Alarm Device D15383Be Installation and Operating Instructions
Normal situation When pressing the Test push button: Oil Alarm and Fault LED indicators are immediately on. Buzzer is immediately on. Relays de-energize after 2 sec of continuous pressing.
When the Test push button is released: LED indicators and buzzer go immediately off. Relays energize immediately.
Alarm on When pressing the Test push button: Fault LED indicator is immediately on. Oil Alarm LED indicator remains on. Buzzer remains on. If it has been reset earlier, it will return to be on. If relay 1 was already reset, it will de-energize again after 2 sec. of
continuous pressing. Test will not affect relay 2, because it is already in alarm status.
When the Test push button is released: The device returns without delay to the preceding status.
Fault alarm on When pressing the Test push button: The device does not react to the test at all.
3.2 Factory settings If the operation of OilSET-1000 is not as described in the previous chapter, check that the device settings are as in figure 7. Change the settings according to the following instructions if needed.
The following tasks must only be executed by a person with proper education and knowledge of Ex-i devices.
We recommend, that when altering the settings the mains voltage is off or the device is initialized before the installation is executed.
Figure 7. Factory settings
The settings are made with switches (MODE and DELAY) and potentiometer (SENSITIVITY) located in the upper printed circuit board, and the jumper located in the lower board (figure 7). In figure 7, the switches are as set in the factory.
Switch S2 is used to set the operational delay of the control unit. When the switch is in low position, relays operate and buzzer is on after 5 seconds after the level has reached the trigger level, and if the level still remains on the same side of the trigger level.
When the switch is in high position, the delay is 30 seconds.
Delays are operational in both directions (energizing, de-energizing). Alarm LED follows the probe current value and trigger level without delay. Fault alarm takes place after a fixed delay of 5 sec.

4 TROUBLE-SHOOTING
Problem: MAINS LED indicator is offPossible reason: Supply voltage is too low or the fuse is blown. Transformer or MAINS LED
indicator is faulty.
To do: 1. Check if the two pole mains switch is off.
2. Check the fuse.
3. Measure the voltage between poles N and L1. It should be 230 VAC + 10 %.
Problem: No alarm when probe in oil or air, or the alarm will not go off Possible reason: The SENSITIVITY setting is wrong in the control unit (see figure 7), or probe is
dirty.
To do: 1. Clean-up the probe and lift it up in the air or immerse it into oil.
2. Turn the SENSITIVITY potentiometer slowly anticlockwise until the probe gives an alarm.
3. Immerse the probe into water and wait until the alarm goes off. If the alarm does not go off, turn the potentiometer slowly clockwise until the alarm goes off.
4. Lift the probe up in the air or oil. The probe should give an alarm again.
Problem: FAULT LED indicator is on
Possible reason: Current in probe circuit too low (cable break) or too high (cable in short circuit). The probe might also be broken.
To do: 1. Make sure, that the probe cable has been connected correctly to the OilSET-1000 control unit. See probe specific instructions.
2. Measure the voltage separately between the poles 10 and 11. The voltages should be between 10,3….11,8 V.
3. If the voltage is correct, measure the probe current. Do as follows:
3.1 Disconnect probe’s [+] wire from probe connector (pole 10).
3.2 Measure short circuit current between [+] and [-] poles.
3.3 Connect mA-meter as in figure 8.
